It may puzzle President Cameron to control what that site does.

No, he couldn't sort things out there.

Hell, he can't even sort them here!

Rules are made to be broken, sadly.

No.

Rules are imposed for the governance of fools and the guidance of wiser persons.

Her father stated on tv that she was being bullied for months, well if he knew why did he not do something about it?

Stupidity or ignorance?

He may not have known at the time, but why would the girl put herself through that time after time and for so long?

She was also said to have a propensity to self-harm.

That might indicate severe problems with feelings of self worth or it could suggest a tendency to a form of masochism, whereby any self-inflicted injury actually gave her a feeling of pleasure rather than merely a feeling of some sort of control over her own body.

I can't help thinking there is more to this and maybe something will never find out.

I also doubt that the real story will emerge from the media fog about the website.

This brings to mind some graffiti I once saw -

"My mother made me a homosexual!"

Below it, someone had added -

"If I get her the wool, would she make me one as well!"

On the matter of graffiti, someone had adorned the Durex machine in the gents' loo at college with the slogan,

"Free Nelson Mandela"....

Guess who appended the words beneath:

"with every packet"

:rofl:

"If you are disgusted with the graffiti in this public loo, please sign the partition!"

In my early days as a teacher when the old wooden desks with wrought iron legs and inkwells were still around, a dyslexic pupil eloquently carved into his desk during one of my enthralling lessons, "School is carp!"
